- Aint It Cool News has posted the latest report from Mysterio, with more from the Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back set, containing part one of a good new interview with Holden himself, Ben Affleck. He took some questions from AICN readers themselves and posed it to the man, who’s set to rip up the box office in Pearl Harbor as well as J&SBSB this summer. Here’s a clip:
BEN: Well if I just did stuff based on just money alone, I would’ve done a lot of it and never would have done a lot of the movies I did. And you know some of them turn out to be good, and some didn’t work as well. I mean for one thing, Kevin’s writing is very distinct and I think we share a similar sense of humor, so I just find his stuff really, really funny and we also have a similar kind of sensibility. Also, nobody would give you like giant hunks of dialog to work with like Kevin does. You’ll find like one, two or three sentences are virtually a monologue in movies today. As an actor, maybe it’s selfish, but you want to be able to work more and I get that opportunity with Kevin, and whether it works of falls flat, its always interesting and fun for me to work on personally.
